net: batch of last_rx update avoidance in ethernet drivers.

2015-05-14T21:38:17Z

None of those drivers uses last_rx for its own needs. See 4dc89133f49b8cfd77ba7e83f5960aed63aaa99e ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx") for reference.

tile: use %*pb[l] to print bitmaps including cpumasks and nodemasks

2015-02-14T05:21:37Z

printk and friends can now format bitmaps using '%*pb[l]'. cpumask and nodemask also provide cpumask_pr_args() and nodemask_pr_args() respectively which can be used to generate the two printf arguments necessary to format the specified cpu/nodemask.

Merge branch 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu

2014-10-15T05:48:18Z

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo: "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other inconsistent operations. This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr(). Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr(). This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully remove the obsolete accessors" * 'for-3.18-consistent-ops' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (38 commits) irqchip: Properly fetch the per cpu offset percpu: Resolve ambiguities in __get_cpu_var/cpumask_var_t -fix ia64: sn_nodepda cannot be assigned to after this_cpu conversion.

tilepro: Call dev_consume_skb_any instead of kfree_skb.

2014-03-25T04:19:12Z

Replace kfree_skb with dev_consume_skb_any in tile_net_tx and tile_net_tx_tso which can be called in hard irq and other contexts. At the point where the skbs are freed a packet has been successfully transmitted so dev_consume_skb_any is the appropriate variant to use. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman"

tilepro: Don't receive packets when the napi budget == 0

2014-03-15T02:52:48Z

Processing any incoming packets with a with a napi budget of 0 is incorrect driver behavior. This matters as netpoll will shortly call drivers with a budget of 0 to avoid receive packet processing happening in hard irq context. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Replace u64_stats_fetch_begin_bh to u64_stats_fetch_begin_irq

2014-03-15T02:41:36Z

Replace the bh safe variant with the hard irq safe variant. We need a hard irq safe variant to deal with netpoll transmitting packets from hard irq context, and we need it in most if not all of the places using the bh safe variant. Except on 32bit uni-processor the code is exactly the same so don't bother with a bh variant, just have a hard irq safe variant that everyone can use. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdep

2013-11-06T11:40:25Z

In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we must explicitly initialize any locks. The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize the structure. This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes this worth while. Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with the seqcount lockdep enablement.
